Monoprice sold out! Blue Jeans good? - Blu-ray Forum

BluLobsta · 01-07-2009, 12:43 PM

Hey, I recently had problems with cheapo HDMI cables so I had to replace them. I went to Monoprice and literally everything is sold out, so I went to Blue Jeans Cable. Has anyone had any bad experiences with these cables? If so, please let me know. Thanks-

monoprice sold out of hdmi cables???...

Hopefully it was from all the home users and not Stores stock pile'ing up then charging 40 bucks a cable that costs so cheap in the first place

Monoprice also dropped the ball on shipping this last week. I ordered banana plugs and speaker wire on Sunday and paid extra for the 3-day UPS shipping. My stuff is set to arrive on Friday

From Monoprice.com:

Due to unexpected heavy order volume, orders are being delayed by one(1) day at this time. However, UPS Next Day & 2nd Day air shipments placed before the same-day shipping cut-off time will still be shipped out on the same day. We're doing our best to ship out orders ASAP. Truly sorry for the delay and any inconvenience it may cause you.

Thank you for your understanding and shopping at MonoPrice.com.

I love my blue jeans cables. Better build quality than my monoprice ones, imo.

Monoprice or Firefold

Load up on stuff... nothing is more frustrating than receiving your order and wishing you had added one more cable in. Whenever I place an order for cables I always order more than I think I'm going to need.

I am having great luck with DH Labs HDMI cables. They are a premium cable company for a not so premium price point. (www.silversonic.com)

Front page hdmi 4 5 6 dollars and not cheap either. I ripped open a monster with the owner and one of his. His was better bigger beefier cable.

Amazon sells some very good 6-ft. cables for $10.99.

I ordered HDMI cables from monoprice today and had a tracking number on my order within 30 minutes. I would guess they're back on track with shipping and they only seemed out of stock on a few HDMI cables.

I've ordered HDMI from them in the past and the cables are pretty heavy duty. Recommended!
